Grade Changes

Changes to grades are permitted until you graduate, at which time your academic record is final. The process is briefly summarized here:

  1. The course instructor initiates the change by completing the “Grade Change Form,” noting the previous grade, the new grade, and the reason for the grade change. After signing the form, s/he forwards it to
  2. The department chair, who reviews the grade change request. If s/he approves the change (and the instructor’s signature is valid), the next stop is
  3. Undergraduate Course Grade Changes: Student Academic Records & Financial Services for recording on your academic record.
    Graduate Course Grade Changes: the Graduate School Office where it is reviewed and, if approved (and the chair’s signature is valid), it is forwarded to the Student Academic Records & Financial Services for recording on your academic record.
